The telegraphers, station agents and train dispatchers of the Pacific division of the Southern Pacific and the lines in Oregon are to recefve an increase of 10 per cent in wages, according to a state- ment, made yesterday by President H. B. Perham of the International Order of Rallroud Telegraphers. This dgcision of the company will affect over 1400 men. Negotiations with the railroad company have been pending for some time. A com- nitiee of the telegraphers in conference with the management of the company ar- rived at a satisfactory agreement at a conference yesterday morning, at the end of which the employes expressed gratifi- cation at the treatment accorded by their employers. When the question of increasing wages was first considered by the operators a committec' was immediately appointed by the Order of Rallroad Telegraphers to confer with the company. The commit- lee was representative of all systems of the company from Portland to New Mex- ico. In attendance were W. E. Dawdson, general chairman; D. W. Koppikus, gen- eral secretary and treasurer; O. P. Bates, A. O. Sinks, F. D. Smith and F. 8. Thompson. All during the negotlations ang conferences the committeemen have, they say, recelved the utmost courtesy from the company. It was with little dif- fieulty, after they had properly presented their case, that an adjustment was made, they say. At the final conference Julius Krutt- schnitt, general manager, and James Ag- ler, manager, represented the railroad, and President H. B. Petham joined with sthe telegraphers’ committee in presenting the appeal. After a little discussion the company decided to make the concessions, and the representatives.of the telegra. | phers passed the word along the line that everything had been amicably settled. The wages of the two systems are to be regulated in " accordance with the changing business sttuations at the va- \ rious points. According to Perham this means that business might increase at one point and decrease at anether, and that the.pay of the employes would de- p;nd upon the business conditions at each bplace. —_— To-Morrow tke Last Day.
